Wiikey 2 v1.3 NSMB problems

Hey everyone,
Asking on a forum is usualy my last point of call after spending hours and hours searching through them first. My issue is with NSMB on a hardmodded Au Wii with Wiikey 2 that has had the 1.3 odyssey upgrade applied. I don't have any softmods on the Wii and it is running 4.2E. When I insert the Pal NSMB backup it just goes straight to the 'An error has occurred. Press the Eject Button and remove the disc...etc' message. It will do this everytime without fail. If i turn it off and on occasionally I get the 'The system files are corrupted....' message if the disc is still in the drive. I have tried this with a backup ive created and ive tried downloading other versions. Has anyone encounted similar issues and if this has already been asked I appologise in advance, i simply couldnt find it.

v1.3 us upgrade. i got it from the wiikey site (im pretty sure). i think shotdog is right that i need to find another version. i think the one i have is either patched, scrubbed, hacked or whatever. need to find a straight up copy.

You have to use an UNPATCHED version of NSMB. The patched one does not work with Wiikey2 and firmware 1.3. I searched a lot for this information, because my first 2 NSMB versions were patched and did not work. Finally I found an unpatched one and how surprising it worked. I'm already in world 4 without any problems.

One quick note I have both hardmod and soft mod on my wii, I have been able to play NSMB patched version with wiikey 2 1.3 without any problem, this might be because i was able to play it before the 1.3 update due to the the soft mods I have. But to say a patched version will not work with Wiikey 2 and 1.3 is not true if you have the soft mods installed.

@dbspanks: You are correct. But as we are in the Wiikey2 subforum, one has to assume a minimum congruence between the users (and the Wii systems) and that is Wiikey2 with firmware 1.3 having problems with NSMB. Otherwise every user would have to write their answers in a tree based layout (which chip, which firmware, which Wii system menu, which softmod, which Wii hardware revision). And that's not pratical I think.

But nevertheless, you are correct. If you have a softmodded Wii with a patched NSMB, you are able to play NSMB, but not because of Wiikey2 (at least what I know).
